So the meet didnt really end as planned. I definately did not do as good as i thought i would do...
Floor- it was the first event and not a good way to start the meet. Usually floor is one of my top events, but oh no not at this meet. I messed up on my last tumbling pass and so i did an easier one. That made me mad, but i was tryin not to let it get to me. I got an 8.75 and tied for second place. I can get in the 9.0 and higher on floor
Vault-2nd event..yeah so im tryin not to let floor get to me and all but then my coach george comes and talks to me about how i cant get all pissed after one little mistake and that just made my attitude worse. then he got on my case about how it seems like i dont want to be there and that i was acting "immature". that just made me even more pissed off there. anyways i didnt even do my harder vault, i did an easier one, i got an 8.175 and fourth place. The highest possible score that i could have gotten was a 9.1 so it wasnt that bad. I also rolled my ankle on my second vault and that made my ankle hurt even more..it had already been hurting, i rolled it at practice on thursday pretty bad. I almost kinda wish that i had broken it..i know thats not a good thought..but yeah
bars-3rd event..NOT GOOD AT ALL! i didnt even warm up one of my skills because i was afraid to do it, but i just did it in competition and it was PERFECT! my whole bar routine was perfect until i went to do my dismout. I fell on my freehip Handstand, which i NEVER fall on!so that made me even more pissed, and i got a mother friken 7.7 with a god damn fall. and the rest of my routine was perfect except for that fall so i dont understand why it was so low, even with a fall. yeah didnt place on that event obvisously.
beam-4th and final event. It was almost my best event, meaning the least amount of mistakes. I didnt connect either of my series, which is vital so i got .2 for each missed connection, so that was .4 total. I got an 8.425 or 8.475 i cant remember, so beam was my second best event which was weird because usually bars and floor are my top scoring events. but whatever. i got 5th place i think.
my all around was like a low 33.something i dont remember exactly.
on the other hand my teammate kelsey did awesome, like she always does and of course beats me cuz she always does on every event. its just not fair because i am the hardest worker at the gym and she like never works a lot. George(coach) even said that i was the hardest worker out of the enire gym and that i deserve to do good more than anything else. Like in the competition before us, we had the girls who are a level under us compete. and this one girl, never ever does her tumbling passes in her floor routine and if she does its with a spot, and there is this other girl who always works hard at her tumbling. nowthe girl who doesnt do her tumbling outscored the girl who always does her tumbling by a lot. its just not fair that the people who dont try/work hard always do better than the people who do work/try hard...ITS JUST NOT FAIR!
anyways my next meet is in Akron, Ohio, and my bday weekend(jan. 15-16) Kendall is coming to that meet and its going to be a lot of fun and i hope to do a lot better...than what i did at this meet. I did aweso,e at this meet last year and i hope to do awesome again!
